has Iust returned home from a trip As lar
Ets as Iowa, and apparently finds reason
TO be more than ever pleased with Wyo-
ming; The corn crop for a hundred
miles or so west Of the river is good" he
says, while the country lying between
there and the Hills Is almost a failure, and
it would seem that the settlers in this
strip mus fare badly this winter. Our
towns are better built and show more en-
terprise than anything between here and
Fremont. The farmers of the Black
Hills, should they ever feel u little dissat-
isied, should take a look outside. They
are in the garden spot of the world, ST.
far as production is concerned, and We
doubt if anv Of them would ever remain
long away from the productive valleys and
plateaus Of the Black Hills. There il
nothing like it. Leave the sultry valley

CHICAGO has already met with two
great stumbling blocks in considering ar
Engagements for the proper reception OF
President Cleveland. In the first place
the presid mt is to be given both an after
MOOT aud evening reception. The former
will be a public affair. at which the great
army of uuwashed American citizens will
be permitted the glorious privilege OF
shaking the nation ) ruler by the hand.
As t. the evening r, ception, however,
sive affair, to which none are to be adj
mirted except blue nosed aristocracy,
which has grown wealthy through the ap
preriatiun In value of pork. or perhaps
through some adroit kuack in utilizing
remnants III a rendering establishment.
Cultivated people who have thus climbed
to the giddy heights of 80 .ial and fnan
cltl success are not inclined to mix with
the rabble or rub shoulder to shoulder
with the honest day laborer. Hence there
is a great deal of trouble in camp, the
uhNuIdl IGSulI vi WuNCn VIII NC hdlu ltci
inRs on both sides. Another prospective
cause of tr uble is found in resolutions Of
the following description:
ReSo'Ue,i, That it is the sense of the
assembly that the carpenters take no part
iu the coming demonstration October 8.
in honor of President Cleveland. if the
laying Of the corner stone OF any building
being con,trurted in part by ''scab'
workmen is included in said demonstra
ton.
The Am dgamated Carpenters Union
has had serious troubles with the builders
for a year or more with the result that the
union men have been excluded from work
on the immense auditorium, among other
buildings. 1t was at one time proposed
that the president lay the corner stone Of
the building mentioned, which will &C
count for the exhibition of feeling on the
part of tie union carpenters. 1t will re-
quire a good of tact to straiRhten out all
the complications which will arise.

The Turkish cuisine must he tasted to
be appreciated. The basis of all culinary
operations in STEAMBOAT is a certain kind
of talloE extracted from the broad and
thick extremity of the Caraman sheep.
This tallow has an odor so potent that we
would not use it even for candles. The
Turks are essentially vegetarians. They
eat beef very rarely, and never PORK or
veal. They indulge in ducks, lean fowls
and finally sheep, the flesh of which they
cut off in small pieces. These pieces are
strung upon long spits, which are held
and turned for some minutes over hot
Goals, where they are slowly roasted, re-
tanning all their juices. This is what is
called kebab, a healthful and nutritious
food, which Europeans find delicious.
Turkish pastry is quite varied, and would
not be disagreeable if honey and sugar
were not ufed so abundantly, and if the
taste of tallow could be excluded. Bak-
lava and ekmek kataif (thick cakes cooked
in honey, perfumed with rosewater and
covered with caimak, kind of cream) in
particular, recall very savory memories.
Pashas and rich Turks always have at
their repasts q great number of dishes,
which the servants bring in on brass
platters and place on the mat on the floor
WI COlINhLLltS SAl oLHd4l ~" AdDISot hACuLlu
which the guests squat themselves. They
eat in silence and in a grave manner, and
serve themselves generally with their
fn5ers as well as with their forks, and
with their teeth as well as with their
knives. Nevertheless. they deign to use
a spoon to convey to their mouths food
that is not very solid, like stewed rice,
malebi, a kind of cook d cream and
%iaourt, thick and b~itterish milk, of all
of which they are very fond. Their
drink consists of clear water, but this
does not prevent them from imbibing be-
fore their repast a white liquor, raki,
which is made of the gum of the mastic
tree mixed with alcohol. 1t is an agree
able drink, but it is used like absinthe,
the taste and properties of which it pos
sesses. Its use. and even its abuse, does
not bring remorse to the conscience of
the Turks, for Mohammed has forbidden
them TO use wine, but he forgot, prophet
though he was, to foresee the manufac

1t is a useful precautlon for the tourist,

THERE were some rather funny fea-
lures of the presidents reception in
Philadelphia. One man called Superin
tendent of Public Buildings Mcpherson
to him and asked if the latter could not
possibly arranl for a few minutes pri
vate conversation with the president.
Another man, rather young. wanted to
know, How are you. Grover, old boY2"

Never Get Beyond Twenty-Five Inches.
Writing of waists, it has often occurred
to me, when reading dress exchange
columns" that women, in mentioning
the size of their waists, never seem to get
beyond the regulation twenty-five inches.
Occasionally. | notice some courageous
individual that she measures
twenty.three inches, but beyond that no
n seems to dare go. OfteDer than not
we see eighteen, nineteen, twenty and
twenty-one inches severally quoted as
being the waist size. Now, one cannot
help a feeling of certainty that in count
less cases this does not represent natures
standard. 1t is too uniform by far, for
the great mother delights in variety,
never more openly expressed than in re-
lation to the human form divine. Alas,
the divinity of shape is often destroyed
by foolish folks who think some reduc-
ton of size absolutely essential to beauty.
| am sure any one who has noticed the
fact / draw attention to will see that
between twenty-three and twenty-eiGhi
inches is a great gulf fixed. and that very
few unmarried women will confess to in.
termediate inches.-Cor. Fashion Journal

How It Occurred.

1t Is stated upon good authority that Stone,
the man who murdered contractor Mather-
son, of Boerne, was a gambler, who played
with the laborers, won their money from the
men, and thus secured their time checks. He
presented a check, so obtained, to contractor
Matherson, and remarked that he must have
money or blood right away Matherson took
I've got no money and | suppose you must
have the blood" whereon stone shot and
killed him. Stone had been turned out of a
camp for gambling before and was reputed to
be bad man.
There is some talk of Matherson's friends
suing the railroad for damages but as far as
can be learned there are no grounds for action.
